A St. Louis Family & Lifestyle Blog
My Little Pumpkins. I was feeling really guilty about not taking Ezra with us to Eckert’s in Millstadt a few weekends ago. And I also really wanted some pictures of both boys on pumpkins. So I talked BTR into heading up to the Belleville Eckert’s on Friday night to snap a few photos.

One.
This week my mom watched Ezra while I took Jude to his gymnastics class. His favorite thing is hanging on the bars.

I cannot wait to see everyone in their pajamas and costumes! Today I am just sharing PJs, costumes will be later!
I threw the white duvet cover on our bed (just on top of our normal comforter) and thought I would have Jude read some of his Halloween books to Ezra.
Well the jokes on me because Jude only wanted to jump on the bed and Ezra only wanted to eat books and roll off the bed. I like to pretend they are snuggling in the photo above. Pretend being the key word.
I even tried bribing Jude with a sucker but that didn’t work. But really, I don’t care because I’m super happy with how they turned out and we had a fun morning jumping on the bed!
And that one, he is legit crawling and is never where I leave him anymore. Which means I need to make sure tiny Jude toys are no longer on the ground 24/7.
After we snapped our pictures we did a bit of crafting to send Halloween cards to a few of our favorite people.
And then later that afternoon while Ezra was napping, Jude and I decided to bake a cake! From a box of course.
I’ve been having a lot of fun having Jude help me in the kitchen lately. He likes to pour and stir things. And eat cake batter. But I like eating batter too, who can blame him.
And HUGE shoutout to Jen who taught me that you can microwave frosting for 30 seconds and then pour it on your cake as a glaze. I feel like my life has changed for the better because of it. Also, pretty glazed cakes with sprinkles for life!

We’ve had a lot of fun reading Halloween books these past few weeks. I bought a couple to try and show Jude how fun it was to dress up, and then I just kept buying more. Oops. So I thought it would be fun to share our favorites with you!

If you’ve been reading my blog for any amount of time, you know one of our favorite places to visit is Eckert’s. We normally visit the Belleville Farm since it is literally down the road from our house and takes less than 10 minutes to get there. Well a few weekends ago they invited us out to their Millstadt Farm and I think we established a new fall family tradition!

I’m so excited to share another Day In The Life post with you all! Fair warning, tons of reading and pictures. And you probably won’t find me that interesting so feel free to skip ahead! :) And big thanks to Julia for reminding me to do these and then compiling them all!
